The Schedule 13D filed by Emancipation Capital, LP, Emancipation Capital LLC, Emancipation Capital Master, Ltd., Emancipation Capital SPV II LLC and Mr. Charles Frumberg on October 16, 2012 (the "Original Schedule 13D"), relating to the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share of Globecomm Systems Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), is hereby amended as set forth below by this Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D ("Amendment No. 1").
Except as specifically provided herein, Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Original Schedule 13D. Any capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original Schedule 13D.
Item 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. |
Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by the following:
The Reporting Persons intend to vote all of their shares "against" Proposal 2 contained in the proxy statement for the Issuer's upcoming annual meeting. The Reporting Persons believe that, as a matter of good governance, the request for an increase in the number of shares that may be issued under the Issuer’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") should be contained in a separate proposal from the request to make other revisions to the Plan. In this case, it is coupled with changes to, among other things, director compensation, which as currently proposed, the Reporting Persons are strongly against.
As a stand-alone matter, the Reporting Persons would not be opposed to increasing the number of shares issuable under the Plan. However, because the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the "Board") has chosen to couple this proposal with director compensation and other matters, the Reporting Persons have no choice but to vote "against" the proposal in its entirety, and in any case question why these very distinct items were bundled together.
We urge the Board to postpone the vote on Proposal 2 and call a separate Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Issuer to vote on both components of Proposal 2 as separate proposals.
